Johnny Cash
When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry.
Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash
The gospel of Christ must always be an open door with a welcome sign for all.
Johnny Cash
I wore black because I liked it. I still do, and wearing it still means something to me. It's still my symbol of rebellion -- against a stagnant status quo, against our hypocritical houses of God, against people whose minds are closed to others' ideas.
Johnny Cash
Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood, and you're the one I need
Johnny Cash
I started to write the song. And I was in Gladewater, Texas, one night with Carl Perkins and I said, I've got a good idea for a song. And I sang him the first verse that I had written, and I said it's called Because You're Mine. And he said, I Walk The Line is a better title, so I changed it to I Walk The Line.
Johnny Cash
I'm thankful for the sea breeze that feels so good right now, and the scent of jasmine when the sun starts going down.
Johnny Cash
You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space.
Johnny Cash
Get rhythm when you get the blues.
Johnny Cash
Everybody was wearing rhinestones, all those sparkly clothes, and cowboy boots. I decided to wear a black shirt and pants and see if I could get by with it. I did and I've worn black clothes ever since.
Johnny Cash
How well I have learned that there is no fence to sit on between heaven and hell. There is a deep, wide gulf, a chasm, and in that chasm is no place for any man.
Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash
When you sing, you pray twice.
Johnny Cash
Rick Rubin came to my concert in Orange County, Calif. I believe this was, like, '83 when he first came and listened to the show. And then afterwards, I went in the dressing room and sat and talked to him.
Johnny Cash
The fire and excitement may be gone now that we don't go out there and sing them anymore, but the ring of fire still burns around you and I, keeping our love hotter than a pepper sprout.
Johnny Cash
When God forgave me, I figured I'd better do it too.
Johnny Cash
Life is the question and life is the answer, and God is the reason and love is the way.
Johnny Cash
I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way.
